I tried putting another link on page 3 saying 'home' and set the target as home.htm which is my home pages name, when I click ctrl and mouse to check it it says that home.htm cannot be found, I have searched the net and all info says same and I have followed it and its still the same, I cant seem to link back to my home page, I dont knw what I am doing wrong and have been struggling for hours now, can someone please help me with instructions in plain english as I am new to all this, Thanks Sylvia.

Make sure all your .htm files are in the same folder. If they aren't then you have specify the path to the file in the link rather than just <A href="home.htm"> You would have to do something like <A href="../home.htm"> or something along those lines. Also you will have to name your homepage index.htm or default.htm.

Some servers allow home.htm to be a homepage. My server says it will use the following in order of priority:
index.*,home.*,main.*,start.*,begin.*
*can be XML, HTML, HTM, CGI, or PHP.
